NAME
       scalbln(), scalblnf(), scalblnl(), scalblnq(), scalblnw() - scale expo‐
       nent of a radix-independent floating-point number

SYNOPSIS
   HP Integrity Servers Only
DESCRIPTION
       The function returns where r is the radix of  the  machine's  floating-
       point  arithmetic.   When r is 2 (as it is on all PA-RISC and Integrity
       servers), computes the same value as

RETURN VALUE
       and are equivalent.

       If x zero, or a NaN, returns x.

       returns a properly signed infinity in lieu of a value  whose  magnitude
       is too large, and raises the overflow and inexact exceptions.

       raises  the  underflow and inexact exceptions whenever a result is tiny
       (essentially denormal or zero) and thereby suffers  loss	 of  accuracy,
       and may raise those exceptions if the result is merely tiny.

ERRORS
       No errors are defined.
